Thanks. After digging through it, I can say: an additional binary
(program) is needed for doing the print out, but the sources of it are
missing. True, a GPL license file is included, but does not reference
to any included file. Instead the PPD file contains a copyright notice
of Konica Minolta. But there is no noticed about redistributing, nor
about GPL, nor about modifying it to our needs.
Sorry to say, but we need the GPL sources, and an OpenSource statement
on any shipped file. But it is missing.
Regards,
Klaus.
